[QUOTE="Dr. NRG, post: 604557, member: 7697"] In response to multiple questions about my last post. For the same reason that many people here will be paying (again) for the content in an integrated format, it's tempting to get the content (90% of which I paid for already) in an integrated format myself. I am not saying I plan to steal anything. I am not encouraging stealing anything. I am merely commenting that re-releasing a compilation of things that they have essentially already released between the SRD, splat books, errata, and previous editions is going to cause some people (not me, mind you) to be more likely not to pay for the same content again. Am I wrong? If I am wrong, how many more revisions are you willing to pay for, given an apparently very low percentage of new content? If they include each year's errata and splat books in the core books and release a new set every year, are you all going to buy them? How about every six months? There comes a time when you grow tired of paying for what's essentially a compilation of the same material you already paid for. I, too, plan to use the SRD in conjunction with my "old" books, but I would be extremely surprised if the new books don't appear on file-sharing within days of release... BTW, if there is more new content in them, I'm more likely to buy them. I am admittedly deriving the 90% statistic I use above from hearsay, and will stand corrected if there is more to the books than has been rumored. NRG [/QUOTE]
